5 Metaphysical Institute Realization. God is Creative Spirit, everywhere present, eternally here. In Him is all life, intelligence, goodness, holiness and truth. He knows no want. He suffers no pain. He is unlimited in time, space and circumstance. Man, child of God, is divine spirit; shares His resources, lives, moves and has his being in God, as an infinite sea. "There is one God and Father of all, who is over all, through all, and in all. As His child, therefore, I am pure spirit - free from ills of body, mind and soul. In pure spirit, I live, move and have my being. I am perfect, even as my Father in heaven is perfect. The breath which I breathe is the breath of the Spirit. The food which I eat is the gift of the Spirit, and it fills me with the strength of the Spirit. The consciousness of the Perfect Spirit is mine, and I know it and feel it flowing through my whole being, bringing with it strength, power and perfect peace. The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, and I feel His presence all around me, in me, and through me. I am free from all sickness, worry and fear. Perfect love casts out all fear from me and I am free. Health, hope, peace, life, love, truth and plenty are mine. These, I claim from God. These, in the name of Christ, I Now receive. I render thanks for the perfect gift. 5

6 INTRODUCTION. There is a law of healing so plain that even a child can understand it; so fundamental that the ablest mind has never yet thought through all the facts and phenomena of life that rest upon it. It is the purpose of this book to make this law plain. The greatest power in the world is the power of thought - for it is Creative Mind in action. Nothing exists that did not first exist in thought, from the first sun that blazed, only in the Mind of the Creator, to the last doll-dress, fashioned by a childish hand. Science supports the fact that the first movement in nature can have come only from the application of an immaterial force or Will to the primary etheric particles, otherwise in a perfect state of equilibrium. It must leave to metaphysics, not only an explanation of the Will that moves, but also the substance that is moved. This, then, it is the province of this book to show, with all that it entails. Since an act of Will is an act of Mind, we concern ourselves with the activity of a Creative Mind. Again, since Mind acts creatively, there is a way in which it acts. We must also, therefore, teach the way. It is to teach this way, that the Bible was written; that Jesus lived and taught. This way has been known for many centuries, but has always been taught in terms of the understanding of the day in which the teacher lived. The Great Metaphysician taught largely in parables and oriental figures of speech. But He taught "the Way," and his followers were called the People of the Way. The Way" is the Law - and today, the understanding of it as law enables us to put, in a few simple statements, which all can understand, the principles of the law; which, if learned and used, will enable anyone to control the conditions of his body, mind and environment. Anyone can learn how to use it. 6

7 It is clear to us that it is natural to use the power of Mind, and that the greatest happiness results from its exercise. Mind is so constituted, that it must act, it must express that which it feels itself to be. All nature points to the fact that, wherever action ceases, death, or negation, begins. Mind is the very spirit of the life in nature and therefore, is eternally active. Yet, it is also infinite repose - for it is that, out of which all activity springs, and by which it is sustained. In this book, we are not dealing so much with that great potential of activity, which we call being, as with the law by which it acts. We are concerned, not so much with the contemplation of the Life, Love and Wisdom, which is God or Being, as with the way Spirit manifests. How life becomes health; how love becomes happiness; and how wisdom becomes wealth - we desire to know. As these are all qualities of Mind, and in their pure state are undifferentiated into form, we realize that, when they begin to pass out into individual expression, it must be by the process of thinking. That is the only way Mind can act. So that the Creative process is simply Mind in Action - or Mind thinking its Life, Love and Wisdom into form. Mind in Action is always creative, but it is also thought. Thought acts in Mind to create. Or Mind first produces thought, and then reacts to it, to become that which it has thought. This is the whole law of creation. Mind creates what it thinks. The many forms pass out of the one Mind, but each form has a corresponding thought, which produces and sustains it. Mind in Action is, therefore, also the Law. We call it the Law of Cause and Effect. Law is the principle on which Mind works. For every primary cause is in the mind - and the effect is simply the form, which thought has taken. Thought is first cause, in any created series - and form is effect. 7

8 Thought acts upon Mind to produce things. Since things are made out of Mind, they are simply thought in form, but they maintain form and reality, only so long as they are sustained by the thought. The Law, therefore, may be defined as Mind in Action, producing the many out of the one, by the power of thought. And this book is written to furnish a daily meditation on the highest of all themes - man's control of his own body, happiness, circumstances and environment, by the thoughts which he thinks. The knowledge and use of thought and the Law of Mind in Action is the knowledge of which Jesus spoke, when he said, "Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. May these pages free many to the glorious wisdom of Mind in Action. 8 FENWICKE L. HOLMES December 30, 1918

9 METHOD OF READING & STUDY OF "THE LAW OF MIND IN ACTION." This book is written to teach the one simple law of mind - the Law - which anyone can understand and use, and which, if used, will give freedom, joy, health, supply and peace to the one who uses it. This is a big claim, but it is supported by the Bible, by the Great Teacher, and by the experience of thousands now living. Everything in this book is based on the Law outlined in Lesson II, and the student is requested to read each chapter, and then ask himself, "How does this illustrate the Law? Is it true to the Law?" Always do this - and you will soon know the Law for yourself and can use it, and teach it to others. Thus, you will become a master of life. This book is designed, also, to stimulate your own thinking and investigation. It is not expected that the beginner will grasp the full significance of all the principles, at one reading. It is for meditation. Read and Think. Make a study of life, books, news- papers, men and events, with reference to this Law, and you will find thousands of illustrations of it. When you can reduce all the phenomena of life to this Law, you have become a great philosopher. If you are entering on this kind of study for the first time, do not allow offense at some one statement to discourage your further reading. Perhaps you have not yet understood it, in the way it was meant. Perhaps it is so new a view that you do not want to believe it, yet. Go on reading and studying, and make your own decisions. As Paul says, "Prove all things; hold fast that which is good." Even if you should never accept it all, you can still get help, and find health and peace. A close study of these lessons will reveal to the student that they are not brought together by a chance 9

10 arrangement, but are consecutive. First, we have the meaning and definition of metaphysics and the Law. Then, the general principles of its application are given. These, in turn, are followed by the philosophy of metaphysics. Fourth, we have an explanation of the reason for certain mental attitudes and how the Law applies; this is a study in cause and effect. Fifth, we consider the Law, as related to the Absolute and the Personal Spirit. Sixth, and finally, we devote our attention to specific methods and treatments. These should all be studied systematically. Too much emphasis cannot be laid on the necessity of systematic study. A mere smattering of metaphysics will never satisfy the demands of the day, nor the inner requirements of the Law. We have a great body of truth. The world is anxious to know why we believe and teach what we do. No science in the world, no philosophy is more complete or comprehensive. We must learn it so completely, that we can teach it with the utmost simplicity - as Jesus taught it. Do not, therefore, go jumping about in your study. A good principle of study is to read the book clear through once, if you wish to get a general view of the principles, so that you may know just about what goal you are driving toward; after that, confine yourself each day to one lesson - and know it. Think more than you read. Masterful study puts more between the lines than it takes from the lines. This is to stimulate your own thinking. Thus, you will become a master teacher of life. The word "treatment," as used in this book, is a synonym for realization or perception. It is useless to quarrel with language. It is - and there's an end to it. The word treatment has become sufficiently popularized to mean, to the general public, what the teacher of the absolute means, by some other favorite term - and it is safe to predicate that this term will be supported by future, as well as present, usage. 10

11 In time, the student will arrive at that point of consciousness where he will not need the formulated treatment. He will then form his own statement. Ultimately, he will be able to "speak the word, only," and it will be done unto him, even as he thinks. The advanced metaphysician heals entirely by the word - he reaches the point where he actually does perceive the truth that is to make him free. 11

12 LESSON I. METAPHYSICS - WHAT IT IS AND DOES The word metaphysics, as its composition indicates, denotes something above the physical, meta, meaning over, and physics, referring to forms of matter. So that to work upon the metaphysical plane means to employ laws that transcend physical means or agencies. It is, then, to push our way back of the thing that we see, which we call the manifestation, until we find the cause of the manifestation. It is the search for the Ultimate Cause and the law by which the Spirit creates a world and brings material objects and physical life into manifestation. Our study of applied metaphysics is designed to make clear these facts: In the beginning, there is only Mind or Spirit. Whatever is made, therefore, must be made out of Mind. Mind can act only by thinking; therefore, it is thought that takes the substance called mind and molds it into form. God makes a world out of himself. As everything in the cosmos starts in thought and manifests in form, creation is the process by which the activity takes place. We may call it evolution or we may call it law. By law, we mean the method Spirit follows in making things. This is the Law of Cause and Effect; whether it be in the making of a planet or a man - the thought is the cause, and the manifestation is the effect. Even the so-called laws of the physical universe are simply the activity of this one law, in some form. WHAT IT DOES. Metaphysics, therefore, teaches us how we may govern our bodies, our world and our happiness, by the thoughts we think; for it declares that man reproduces the creative method and that what is true in the macrocosm or universe is true in the microcosm or individual - that thoughts become things. And it claims that, by acquiring the 12

13 knowledge of the law and by working in harmony with it, man can be freed from limitations of all kinds. Our subsequent studies will reveal that the creative mind in man and the creative mind in the universe are not two - but rather essentially, one. The value of this understanding is that we may use universal creative forces to secure the good we desire, without feeling that we have to create. We do not make the law - we use it, and it does our work for us. All healing, accordingly, is divine. "It is done unto us, even as we will" - it is not done by us. Human will originates its own ideas - but Divine Mind creates. The healer is not the source, but the channel; not the light, but the window; not the electricity, but the wire. He is the teacher, who will guide to the truth, until the patient learns the way for himself. So, all metaphysical healing is based on the principle that the body of man and his affairs are created by the mind, which can either build or destroy, and that this mind is controlled by thought. Jesus was the Supreme Metaphysician, because He could speak the word of authority to mind so positively that, when He said, "Rise, and take up thy bed," the paralytic did as was commanded him to do. It is evident that Jesus used a law that is open to the use of everybody. The constitution of man has not changed nor his essential nature, and so today men are demonstrating this power. I count it as the greatest work that today engages the attention of mankind - not the mere healing, but the advancement of the knowledge of these things, in a world of need. 13 METAPHYSICS, A SCIENCE. For it is a knowledge, or as we say, a science or

14 philosophy. And it takes a real mind to understand it. Metaphysics engages the mind. We must think, and rich and fruitful are the results of logical thinking. By it, we move back along the path of history and science and logical deduction into the realm of Original Causation. We find ourselves entering into the field where all is Spirit, in the beginning of things. We see the Spirit or Cosmic Mind taking the initial step in the creation of the universe. We are at a period before substance or matter is in existence, so that we know that the All-Originating Mind could have but one mode of activity - that of thought. By the process of thought, Spirit projects a substance as universal as itself, which we call ether. By Acting upon Ether, the Creative Mind brings into being planetary systems, earth and all its myriad forms and life. To test this, we may reverse the process of our thought, and begin with science. We take so-called matter, and analyze it into its constituent elements; to the molecule, then to the atom, then to the aeon, then to the electron, and finally to primary ether, which science declares to be the ultimate source of matter. Now science cannot tell whence came this ultimate substance, nor how it received its energy. That is the task of metaphysics, and metaphysics meets the problem squarely, by declaring energy to be the thought of the Creative Mind. THE UNDERLYING UNITY. So that whatsoever way we approach our subject, we find an underlying unity to all things - ether, from the material standpoint; mind, from the mental. Back of all things, then, is the Divine Mind or Spirit, through whose concept the world springs into existence. We thus find ourselves living in an idealistic universe; a universe which, in its essential nature, is purely spiritual and therefore subject to the control of thought, alone. This is the underlying unity, which relates all parts to the great whole - man and nature 14

15 to the Divine Mind, which brought all into existence. It was the great achievement of Moses to discover this underlying unity, or rather to learn it from the ancient Egyptian priesthood, and reveal it to the Israelite people. It is the greatest fact or precept of the Old Testament, which led Jesus, when asked which was the greatest commandment, to quote these words, "Hear, O Israel, the Lord thy God - the Lord is one." It is the work of metaphysics to show that man can put himself into harmony with this One Originating Source, and work in unison with the Creative Purpose, and thus be able to accomplish all things. REALIZATION I am now entered into the consideration of the greatest theme that ever engaged the intellect of man, for I am making no less a study than the Way of God with men. I, therefore, claim from the Divine Intelligence that makes and sustains the universe, the necessary mental capacity and intuition to perceive the great truths of metaphysics. I hold that only the truth will appeal to me and that no error of false judgment will be able to enter my mind to stay there. No previous thought or prejudice shall be allowed to influence me against reason in my study of the new order. I dare to go all the way with truth; for Truth is God, and God is all. So far as I see the light, I will follow it, and I shall not think that the traditions of men are of more value than my own logical conclusions. I commit my ways and my thoughts to God; I trust in the divine illumination, which can come to my own soul, and I venture out in faith on the new pathways of understanding. I will fear no evil, for Thou art with me. I now claim the near and dear presence of Divine Love and Wisdom. I rejoice in the Heart of the World and in my share in the activities of the Divine Creative Mind. Thou, O Lord, art with me, always, even unto the ends of the earth. I worship and bow down; I 15

16 kneel before the Lord, my God. I am at one with Infinite Life, Love and Wisdom, and I give thanks for the light that now begins to illumine my pathway. 16 LESSON II. THE ONE LAW WE NEED TO KNOW. There is one law supreme to this system of life. Sometimes, we call it the law of cause and effect. Sometimes, we speak of it as the method by which spirit passes into manifestation. Psychologists frequently speak of it as the law of suggestion. Every teacher of metaphysics spends his time, either in giving his interpretation of it or in explaining some truth that is related to it. Our happiness and success in life are measured by the degree to which, either consciously or unconsciously, we are obedient to the requirements of this law. It is the law that we cannot break, but we can be broken, by trying to break it. It is the law by which "as ye sow, ye also shall reap." Through it, "it shall be done unto you, according to your faith." It explains why, "As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he." It is the basis of the law of correspondences. It is the activity of Creative Mind, neither good nor bad, by which we create our own heaven and our own hell. It is the secret of all tragedy and all comedy. It is the touchstone to truth, and he who knows it and employs it wisely is the emancipated soul and a master on the path. Let the student, therefore, learn the following principles, which constitute the law, that through the knowledge, he may obtain the mastery of fate, and control the conditions of life and destiny; for no less a power is in the hands of him who learns and wisely employs this law. All must use it, because we live by it; but how few use it wisely. THE LAW. 1. The first principle of this law is that of the universal

17 presence of intelligence; that we live, move and have our being in a vast sea of life, both visible and invisible; that this intelligent life is not only around us but is in us; even more, it not only is around and in us, but it is the substance, as well, of which all things (including our bodies) are composed. This statement is supported, alike, by revelation, as in the Bible; by science, as in psychology or chemistry; and by philosophy, as in our lesson on Spirit. Before there was a visible universe, which we call "Nature," there must, of necessity, have been an invisible universe, which we call Spirit or Power. The orderly way in which It arranged the visible universe, which It created, shows that It was and is a Wonderful Intelligence. Since Spirit was (and is) all, it had nothing else than itself out of which to make a world. It, therefore, had to fashion a substance for its own body - the universe - out of itself, or Spirit. Since Spirit is Intelligence, of necessity, the substance which it brought forth must share its nature. And all life must manifest the life of Spirit, since it proceeds from it. All science is agreed that life has never been discovered that did not come from antecedent life, so that we can move back from the life of Nature to the life from which it is derived, or Nature's God. Accordingly, Nature and the life in Nature are one and the same thing, and we live in a universe which is literally alive. 2. We see, therefore, that this Universal Intelligence is also creative. It is the power that makes things and is the intelligence that molds original substance and holds it in form. As in man, the subjective or impersonal mind builds new life cells, day by day, and takes care of the growing life of the child and the renewing life of maturity, so in Nature, the Creative Mind is busy building ever more stately mansions for its dwelling place. New universes are being flung out across the vast abyss of space; new stars begin to gleam, as they launch out on their ageless journey around 17

18 some distant sun; the earth upon which we tread is growing daily, through the addition of cosmic dust, and daily changing in its internal structure; new forms of life are appearing or old are altering; flowers are blooming into life to breathe their beauty on the breast of nature; and we live in a world of life, ever-renewing, ever-changing, everevolving into higher expression of the exhaustless energy of Creative Mind. The second part of our law, therefore, calls attention to the fact that we not only live in a world of intelligence, but that this intelligence is constantly creating. "Behold, I make all things new." In this is man's hope and his power to act. This life is the life of the Creative Spirit, Intelligence or Mind, and therefore, we perceive that It emerges into form to enjoy its own Power-to-Live. When we think, it is Spirit thinking through us; when we utter a truth, it is Spirit putting out into expression a thought from its limitless Power-to-Think; when we breathe, it is Spirit breathing us. 3. This creative intelligence acts upon the impress of the strongest impression, thought or image made upon it. When man emerges in consciousness out of this vast sea of life, as a wave runs upon the bosom of the ocean, he rises sufficiently high to enable him to perceive that there is an ocean. Thus Spirit fulfills a purpose in becoming man, by enabling Itself, through becoming the particular, to perceive Itself in its All-ness. Man is spirit come forth out of the formless into form, out of the timeless into time, out of the limitless into certain limitations, and yet, as man, spirit never loses its power to draw upon its resources as Spirit. Therefore, we must recognize that all the power of the universe is back of the mind of man, when he thinks. Then, too, we must recognize that there cannot be a will in the Universal Mind opposed to man, for if there were, then he could not draw from the creative mind and power what he wants, except by chance. We, therefore, recognize that 18

19 so far as we are concerned there is, back of us a Universal Creative Mind which desires to become to us whatever we desire, that is, whatever we think into it, and which has no purposes of its own, opposed to ours. As It creates a world by thinking a world, (for Mind can act only through thought) so it creates for man himself, whatever he desires, by acting as Creative Mind upon his thought. This Mind therefore, is in this aspect purely impersonal and neutral (see Lesson VII). It has no purposes of its own as opposed to ours. It is creative activity, infinitely susceptible, responsive to our every thought (Lesson V) and is the power that brings into existence, in form, whatever we fashion in thought. We therefore perceive that whatever we think must make a greater or lesser impression on Creative Mind and that when we consciously use our knowledge we make an image of the thing we desire; then we present it to the Great Creative Intelligence which begins to act upon our suggestion to bring forth our good into visible form. The purpose of this book, in the main, is to show the various phases of the activity of this law, the Law of Creative Activity, by which the creative mind brings into form whatever we present to it sufficiently forcefully in thought. 4. But there is one other feature of the Law which must not be overlooked. This is what we may term the personal side of Spirit's activity. While, as law, it acts in the manner we have just described; and while, so far as the individual will is concerned, it does not act contrary to our purposes, still it also acts as a law of tendency. It tends to the production of higher manifestations of itself in individual expression and form. It is seeking its own self-expression since there can be no other motive of creation at all. Its nature is life, love and wisdom. This, it seeks to manifest. Accordingly it stands back of man as the source of his life, love and wisdom, and is ready to "teach us all things and guide us in the way of truth." It not only creates, therefore, according to the thought we impress upon it as law or 19

20 Impersonal Mind, but It becomes the director of man's thought and life, whenever we turn to it for guidance and direction in our affairs. (See Lessons XXVIII to XXXI.) This is in accordance with the three principles just outlined, for, as Infinite Wisdom, it takes the impress of our desire for Wisdom and brings that out into expression, just as it does life and form. We perceive this Intelligence therefore as the source of man's inspirations and intuitions. When we turn for guidance to It, It becomes our teacher and guide. When we turn to It for love, It becomes our lover. The greatest achievement of our own highest intelligence is therefore to be found in so harmonizing ourselves with this great Life, Love and Wisdom that we may find It in us as a perennial spring, the water of life surging up eternally from the depth of our being. Whosoever believes on this spirit of life, from within him shall flow springs of living water. (Make a study of all the facts you know in relation to this great law. Restate it in your own words. Learn it in some such form as this: 1. I live in a universe of Intelligence in which everything is alive and infinitely responsive to thought, since it takes its form out of the substance of Mind through the process of thinking. 2. This Intelligence is the Creative Factor in all Nature and in the molding of all thought into form. 3. It creates according to its own thought and according to the strongest impression or image of thought of the individual mind. 4. It is the source of my life and understanding and impresses its nature and wisdom upon me as I allow it, through my intuitions. Therefore, I control my life and conditions by the thoughts I think, since the Universal Mind acts creatively on my every thought. I am, through my power of thought, 20

21 master of my fate.) REALIZATION. Meditate on the above law. Think how your life has been controlled, either by your own thinking or by the suggestions that have been made upon your mind, either consciously or unconsciously. When you were a child you took your thought from your family. Your world was what you made it, but it was an unconscious acceptance of the thought and manners of your family. After a while, you began to think independently, and your world changed that much for you. You began to control consciously the conditions of your life. As your understanding grew, you thought more and more independently of your associates; therefore, your life became that much different from theirs. Did you continue to accept the suggestions of your environment or did you begin to think independently? Either consciously or unconsciously you are now conditioning your life. I will now take conscious control of my life. I will think only the things I want to think. I will control whatever is to come into my life, by controlling my thought. I will daily mold my thoughts into finer form that Creative Mind in me and around me may bring forth a world for me of fairer form. I will think thoughts of truth, that I may be guided by Supreme Wisdom; I will think thoughts of faith that I may have the peace of God that passeth all understanding. I do now, so think. I am filled with the spirit of love. I am in harmony with the Divine Mind. I am open and receptive to the highest feelings. I do now consciously contact the Mind of Love and Wisdom. I wait on the Lord that He may renew my strength. My mind is stayed on Thee and I am at perfect peace with all men, and with myself. No evil can befall me and the angels of love are round about me. Conscious of the godlike qualities of my soul, I go my way today in the strength of the Infinite. I walk upon the earth 21

22 as master and not as slave. I keep the law and the law keeps me. I obey the law and the law obeys me. I give my heart to God in divinest joy of self-giving, and I feel the helping hand of God upon me. I am glad, I am strong, I am full of life and love today. 22 LESSON III. HOW TO USE THE LAW - THE SILENCE. The best results are to be secured by using the Law so far as we know it while at the same time looking for more light. The student who approaches this subject for the first time has as yet little to work on for he has not tested out the Law by science and experience. But enough has been said to make us realize that the object of a treatment is to impress our desire on the creative Law with sufficient force to register in the Creative Mind. If the Law creates for us, according to the thoughts we think into Mind, then what we must do is to raise our consciousness to the highest pitch of expectancy so that the best possible results may be secured. Accordingly we must realize that the first thing for us to do in a treatment is to impress our own mind with the feeling that we are about to act upon the Law and that it is about to act for us. 1. The right atmosphere for a treatment, therefore, is that of high faith, so that we will do well to bring ourselves up to the proper pitch of expectancy by some preliminary reading. Take the Bible and read the precious promises in it. "Lo I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world." "Who forgiveth all thine iniquities, who healeth all thy diseases." "They that trust in the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint." "According to your faith, be it done unto you." "Ask, and ye shall receive; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be

23 opened unto you." "When ye pray, believe that ye have received, and ye shall receive." Go over such passages as will help you to strong faith. Learn some of the best ones. One should memorize something daily - a verse, a stanza of poetry, a statement of truth. Everybody should know the Twenty-Third and the Ninety-First Psalm and be able to repeat it at such times as needed to strengthen confidence. It will also be of great help to read for a few minutes or longer in some helpful book of truth. The student may well read, "Creative Mind" or "Being and Becoming." The purpose of this book is, of course, to furnish both instruction and inspiration. After reading the lesson for the day, you will feel the truth more keenly. 2. Having prepared yourself in faith and knowledge, the course of your thought might well run along the line of the Law, much like this: I know that I am surrounded by the finer forces of Spirit. (Lessons IV and VI.) I know that I myself am a center of conscious activity in this great ocean of Divine Mind. (Lessons V and VI.) I know that my word has become the word of truth and a model of creation for the Creative Mind for the good I desire. (Lessons XII and XVI.) Go on mentally meditating along these lines, so long as you feel the interest or need. If necessary, overcome any feeling that may arise of fear or uncertainty. 3. Rid yourself of any sense of sin or fault. If you feel that you have done wrong in any way, seek to right it, so that you may have a clear consciousness. "If, therefore thou art offering thy gift at the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother has aught against thee (cause for it, in your wronging him), leave thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift." These are the words of the Master Metaphysician, and reveal the necessity of no counter thought against that of pure faith. If necessary, forgive yourself for anything you have done that you feel to have 23

24 been wrong. The son of man has power on earth to forgive sin. You are a son of man. If you have fear, get rid of it in the same way. Cast it out. There is nothing to fear. Pull out all the weeds of wrong thinking. Declare that evil or the thought of evil has no influence over you. 4. Now, feel as deeply as you can that all is well with you and the world. Feel how good it is to know this freeing truth; to know that you are a child of God; to know that "all power is given unto me in heaven and on earth." To know that "greater works than these shall ye do, because I go unto my Father." Then say: I am pure spirit, living in a world of spirit and guarded by the Great Spirit of Life. God is spirit, and they that worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth. I am now entered in spirit and in truth into the higher, finer places, where I am in contact with all that is. I would see and know the truth, and feel it at this hour. As a child of the Living God, I make my claim upon the Law. Let this good (mentioning it) come to me. 5. Say distinctly and with deep feeling just what you want of the Law. You are not dictating to it, but if you do not know what you want, the Law has nothing to work on. At the same time, what you are after is the idea of the thing, so you may be sure that the Greater Wisdom will give you only the thing that will be for your best good, but it will be the thing you want and will be along the line for which you were holding the faith attitude. 6. Expect greatly and you will receive greatly. Be strong in your faith, so strong that you feel in your heart that it is now done unto you even as you think, and you can give thanks for it. "Make known your request unto God, with thanksgiving." "In everything, give thanks." Be grateful. 7. For those who wish to develop spiritual perception 24

25 which is the basis of the highest healing power, it is desirable to dwell on the thought of Spirit as a Living Presence, breathing in and through us, vitally interested in all our affairs and identifying itself with all our highest purposes, and aspirations. The desires we have are then recognized as those of Spirit seeking its own selfexpression. The love we have is the love of Spirit in us, and the life is but the individual manifestation of that larger life in which we share. The true "Silence" is the quiet realization of Spirit with such intensity of feeling that we are merged in the Great All and are one with the Infinite Mind. In this consciousness, we may secure the highest results by simply being still and knowing that the Father gives us all things, even before we ask Him. "Before they call I will answer them." "The Spirit knoweth what things ye have need of before ye ask them." The Final Purpose of These Lessons Is Nothing Less than to Bring up the Consciousness of the Seeker for Truth to the Point Where the Demonstration Is Made by Simply Knowing in His Heart that the Good He Seeks Is His Now Simply Because He Has Thought It. That Is the Way in Which Creative Mind Makes Things, and in the End, that Is the Way We Must Secure Them. We Must Know That Our Thoughts Manifest as Things. This Will Free Us from All Sense of Struggle. This Is the Final Peace of the Soul and the Great Goal of Individual Life - to Have the Enjoyment of Self-Conscious Existence and Yet to Rest in the Infinite and Eternal Calm of the Divine Mind. Says Edward Roland Sill: 'Tis not in seeking, 'Tis not in endless striving Thy quest is found Be still and listen; Be still and drink the quiet 25

26 Of all around. Not for thy crying, Not for thy loud beseeching, Will peace draw near; Rest with palms folded; Rest with thine eyelids fallen - Lo! Peace is here. REALIZATION. I rise to the work and the life of the new day with strength and courage. I go forth with eagerness to my task. I go gladly, blithely on, for at the heart of me God presses in to keep me fully supplied with all I need. I will not today lose conscious contact with the life of the Spirit in me. I shall know all day that "beneath me are the girders of the Almighty, underneath are the everlasting arms. Whatever comes to me cannot find me unprepared. If I need wisdom, I have it. If I need courage, I possess it. If I need strength, it is within. My inner life is one with God. "From within me flow streams of living water." "The spirit of truth shall teach me all things, and guide me in the way of truth." I am held in infinite security. I have the wonderful poise and strength of one who is conscious of his inner source of strength. Men who see me today shall wonder at my outbreathing force and magnetic power, but I shall know that it is because the strength of the Infinite is in me. So be it. 26 LESSON IV. SPIRIT. Spirit is the power that makes things. Like the power of electricity or the affinity that holds the atoms together, or the life in the flower, it cannot be seen, for the simple reason that Spirit is one and the same as these. When we see things we perceive them as the form into which Spirit has molded itself. Back of them lies the power that made them

27 and supports their existence. Spirit, then, is not a thing or a person, but a power. Yet its power is the power of Mind, for It must exist before It manifests in a material universe. Its power accordingly is that of thought; and we may therefore say that Spirit is the Power that Knows, the Mind that Thinks, or the Intelligence that Creates. What we call the Life Principle in the plant or animal which causes it to exist and grow is therefore a divine and universal intelligence. It is Spirit or Mind at work. All the world is alive And throbs with a pulse divine; A sentient Mind sustains, The soul of it all is God. All Nature seems to strive - The sap that stirs in the vine, The germ that lives in the grain, The bud that sprouts on the rod. UNITY OF SPIRIT. We live in a living universe vibrant with the intelligent activity of the Creative Spirit. For the intelligence in the rock, the plant, or man have the same source and at the foundation are one. Otherwise we should be living in a universe of many powers and intelligences which would not be able to understand each other and would, therefore, be in constant discord. But science reveals the fact of a universal harmony and adjustment of parts in perfect order. That man can understand this order proves that there is a Mind - and only one - in it which is like his own. NATURE OF SPIRIT. This Universal Mind or Intelligence is also to be described as Love, for all its laws are beneficent and kindly-disposed toward man. The fire beneficently warms us and cooks our food; the sun gladly gives us its light, and life; electricity is our friend and toils for us to produce light and heat and power. It is only when we reverse the natural 27

28 order, which is that of the Divine Mind or Spirit, that the fire destroys our dwelling, the sun smites with its heat, and the electricity rends us. So the power of the universe which is Spirit is also kind: "He sends his rain on the evil and the good, and his sun to shine on the just and the unjust." He is the Tender Shepherd, the Wonderful Counselor, the Everlasting Father. SPIRIT AS WISDOM. As Divine Intelligence Spirit is also the wisdom which directs our affairs, and leads us in green pastures and beside still waters, when we seek Its guidance. Spirit is therefore the Life that lives us, the love that keeps us and the wisdom that guides us. The Great Heart of the Universe vibrates throughout the cosmic plan and we are held by a "love that will not let us go." REALIZATION. Today I look at my world as my friend: The stars are the eyes of God that watch me, the winds and the brooks are the voice of God that speaks to me, the forces of Nature are the Intelligence that serves me. I shall not fear today because I walk in a world I understand, in the presence of Spirit which understands me. I draw upon the hidden energies and power of Spirit. I am in harmony with it all. (Now repeat the 23rd Psalm.) Surely I am led by all love and wisdom in the paths of peace. When thou passeth through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee; when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned, neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. No forces are opposed to me because I recognize in them all the activity of Spirit, loving me, guiding me, giving me new life, today. "God's in his heaven - and his creation - and all's right with my world. 28

29 LESSON V. CREATIVE MIND IN THE INDIVIDUAL. We have already seen that there is a universally present creative intelligence; and the fact that we can recognize it shows that the intelligence in us which cognizes it must be of the same kind. What the nature of the intelligence is which we observe, and the relation of the mind of the individual to the cosmic mind, we will investigate in this and the following chapter. The modern study of experimental psychology has revealed much that is of assistance to the student of metaphysics regarding the nature of the individual mind, and by analogy, at least, of the universal mind. We find that man is possessed of a mind with two distinct ways of acting. The two phases of activity are called subjective and objective.* (We use the terms subjective and objective mind, for the sake of comparison, and the word subconscious as a synonym for subjective. While this is not entirely scientific, it better answers the purpose of the work we are doing here.) Close study reveals the essential unity of these activities and their interaction, in such a way as to prove that it is a unitary mind that acts, in either case. The objective mind is that which man develops to enable him to contact his environment and maintain himself in a world of form and sensation. The babe is born into the world purely subjective. It probably does not use its objective faculties, until it contacts an objective environment. But at the moment of its birth, its objective faculties begin to develop. It feels the cold for the sensory nerve system which is the agent of objective mind carries that impression to its brain. This sensory system is designed to enable the mind to contact its environment and protect the body through the sensations and warnings that are registered by it. As time goes on the child develops a full set of objective activities, 29

30 largely by imitation of the movements, voice, and manners of its elders. In early years, environment makes a child; in later years he makes it. The objective mind with the sensory nerve system under its control governs most of the activities of the voluntary muscles. If I raise my hand to strike the keys of the piano, I do it by an act of will of the objective mind. In time, however, through repeated acts, a habit of action is formed, and then the movement is done unconsciously or under the direction of the subconscious mind. The subjective or subconscious mind, therefore, is found to control the involuntary functions of the body such as the beating of the heart, the contraction and expansion of the lungs, and the digestion of food. We do not have to think consciously about these things; they are done unconsciously. The important fact about the subconscious mind is this: it is the builder of the body or the creative mind. Under its direction new life cells are constantly being born to take the place of those which have finished their work and are passing away. New heart cells are born each minute, new lung cells, new nerve tissues. As every action consumes energy and thus produces waste in the system, the subconscious mind must busy itself with carrying away the waste through the blood, pores, kidneys, lungs and waste system, and at the same time go about to build new life cells to take the place of the old. Our fingers, for example, would soon wear out if they were made of steel, but being made of living flesh, they need never wear out for they are repaired daily by the builder of the body. Thus a marvelous activity is constantly going on within us, asleep or awake, of which we are entirely unconscious; and a million servants of the system are each scurrying to his appointed place to do his workman-like task. So it is literally true that "every day is a fresh beginning, every morn is the world made new," for we rise with a renewed body which is so frequently reconstructed that every organ 30

31 and tissue is doubtless born anew in the course of one year or less. While the healer is never conscious of this activity and would no more think of trying to direct it than the president of a railroad would try to boss a section gang, at the same time it is because this activity takes place that a new body can be "demonstrated ; for under the stimulus of faith and understanding a definite impression of health is made on each new cell as it is born and thus the organ is made whole. All these recreative agents are very susceptible to mental attitudes and reflect our thought either for health or disease. For example, the blood is known to contain certain agents for the destruction of dangerous germs (a germ being an objectified disease thought). These agents customarily approach the foreigner, encircle him, literally cover him with sauce to make him palatable and proceed to eat him. But if the individual is mentally depressed and negative, the little guardian of the body reflects his attitude, does not cover the germ with sauce and refuses to eat him. Then trouble ensues. This scientific fact shows the Bible to be correct when it says, "As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he" in his body. My world was empty, cold and chill, And all-unkind, The while there waited on my will, Creative Mind With unused powers of vastest good; Yet all-unsought. THE VISION CAME, I understood, I THOUGHT A THOUGHT: And, by that thought, my world, ablaze, Flared into form: And, by that thought, from primal haze, Love, tender, warm, Was flashed in splendor to my soul No more in fear, While angels wrote on heaven's scroll, 31

32 32 A Christ is here. THIS MIND IMPERSONAL AND CONTROLLED BY IMPRESSIONS. That the creative activities reflect our mental attitudes, as we see so plainly from these examples, proves another interesting fact, that the subconscious mind and its functioning is entirely under the control of impressions made upon it. That is, it acts as the creative agent, naturally, along the line of health and re-creation, which is native to it; but, on the other hand, it has no purpose of its own apart from the objective mind; and if the objective mind gives it impressions of disease, imperfection, fear, worry, pain, and so on, it begins at once to create, accordingly. We see, therefore, that the subconscious or creative mind is entirely impersonal; it has no purposes of its own. Again, it is subject to control by suggestion; and, finally, it is entirely deductive. DEDUCTIVE. By deductive, we mean that it takes any suggestion given it and then works out the complete idea without any further help from the objective mind. Many persons have had the experience of learning a rule or principle in mathematics but could not solve a problem by it. On going to sleep, however, they have given the problem over to subconscious mind, only to awaken during the night with the problem all solved. The sleepless mind, with perfect deductive power, has worked it all out for them. The value of this fact to the healer is that he knows that when he gives a treatment he does not need to lie awake nights holding the thought. All he has to do is to give the idea or concept of perfect health to the mind, which will begin at once to carry it out in perfect expression in the body. (See Lesson XVI). The student should retain these facts about his mind: it
